    No year, these for the little or zero that I know about these, have only something like this: Henry III (1216-72) and a Reference S.1364.

    Just want it to have one.

    Thanks.

    Cool! I have a cross penny, at least that’s what I think it is. They’re really cool, someday I’ll put together a set of these (probably.)

    I'm BACK!!! Used to be Billet7 on the old forum.

    Henricus Rex III leaps out at you. Great legend!

    It's a Henry III Class 3c long cross penny, 1249-50 (S 1364). The obverse is HENRICVS REX III. The reverse is "NICOLE ON LVND" i.e. the moneyer Nicholas of London.

    Went to pick up the coin, and it looks much better in hand.
